Bag-in/Bag-out Contaiment Systems

Bag-in/Bag-out SystemsBag-in/Bag-out systems are containment systems with the added option of including a PVC bag which includes integral gloves. The bags are used to seal the containment housing while changing filters that are contaminated with dangerous matter. Utilization of very specific procedures is required for the safe use of bag-in/bag-out systems. Camfil Farr publishes a bag-in/bag-out filter change instruction manual for the use of our customers.

The bag is sealed to a flange located at the door opening of the containment section with a shock cord. Used filters are removed from their mount in the housing by reaching into the PVC gloves and sliding the filter into the bag. The bag is then sealed and removed and a new bag is mounted to the flange. The door is then closed and sealed and the unit placed back into service.
